With so many different choices of bedding available for your bed, you may be wondering which ones are worth it and which ones you can do without.
A woollen underlay is something that many people love to have on their beds and for good reason. There are multiple benefits for choosing wool for your underlay, and it can help you to get a more restful night’s sleep.
Wool regulates your body temperature
Wool is a natural material, and in nature, it’s designed to keep sheep at a comfortable temperature. Humans have long discovered that wool also makes the perfect material for clothes and bedding, and one of the reasons for this is that it can regulate your temperature.
On those warm and stuffy nights, your woollen underlay can help you to stay cool. Rather than feeling sweaty and uncomfortable while you toss and turn in your bed, you’ll find that wool wicks away any additional moisture for you, leaving you to sleep peacefully. It works in the winter too, and wool is there to keep you lovely and warm.
Wool is hygienic
If you’re looking for bedding that does not retain bad odours, then wool is the best choice for you. It’s naturally clean, and it doesn’t require a lot of washing, so that is one less thing for you to do.
It is hypoallergenic
For those who suffer from common allergies, you will love the relief that woollen bedding brings you. As sheep’s wool is naturally hypoallergenic and resists dust mites, you are a lot less likely to suffer from sneezing fits and other unpleasant symptoms from your allergies.
You’ll be making an environmentally conscious choice
Woollen bedding helps the environment. One of the reasons for this is because it is biodegradable. Other synthetic fibres can take a long time for the earth to break down once they have come to the end of their lifespan, whereas wool takes much less time. It’s also good to know that you can expect your woollen bedding to last you a long time, so it’s a great investment.
As well as being biodegradable, by choosing wool, you are choosing a renewable source. Sheep will always grow wool that needs to be sheered for their health and well-being. You will also be helping Australian farmers by choosing wool and contributing to the local economy.
